Plumbing Officials Interpretations

Interpretation Disclaimer:

“These views should not be considered as the official interpretation of legislated requirements based on the BC Building Code, as final responsibility for an interpretation rests with the local Authority Having Jurisdiction. The views of the committee should not be construed as legal advice. These interpretations are intended to be meaningful & helpful but always need to be considered with the specifics of an interpretation as they apply to any particular case (building or construction situation.)”

The committee has developed an interpretation request form and a format for response. It can be accessed here. Interpretation Request Form

All requests will be acknowledged and results will be provided in writing. The decisions of the committee are made by consensus with each voting member in attendance having a vote.
